Get Loaded After Party @ Fabric – w/ Simian Mobile - 2009/08/18 17:25
VV BROWN

2009 began with a bang for V V Brown as she made the Top 10 of the prestigious BBC Sounds ‘Poll’ of new artists to watch out for, coupled with an upfront slot on Later With Jools Holland. Last month saw the release of her eagerly awaited debut album ‘Travelling Like The Light’ through Island Records – with inspirations ranging from 50’s rock n’ roll to current day electronica... and Super Mario! The album was preceded by a limited non-chart eligible release of ‘Crying Blood’ on 7" vinyl and download, and more recently the single, ‘Shark In The Water’ which has helped put on her on the musical map. V V’s also been rather busy on the road supporting the likes of The Ting Tings, Ladyhawke, Florence & The Machine and Antony & The Johnsons and wooing festival crowds at Glastonbury, T in the Park, Lovebox and Camp Bestival. Next up then for this ultra-talented 25 year old, London-based artist is Get Loaded in the Park, where you can catch V V Brown performing live in the XFM Stage.
MIIKE SNOW

Miike Snow is made up of the talented trio that is Andrew Wyatt, Christian Karlsson and Pontus Winnberg. Named after an acquaintance with an “i” added for extra flair, Miike Snow recently signed with Downtown Records and are currently making us go weak at the knees with the exceptional ‘Animal’ (complete with Crookers and Fake Blood remixes!) and ‘Burial’ singles, taken from their self-titled debut album. Recorded in Stockholm in the 400 year old home used to house King Gustaf III’s mistress, Miike Snow bristles with confidence. Its intelligent pop music showcasing melodic songs built for the anything goes environment of the club. While you may not have recognised Karlsson and Winberg by their full names, you have surely heard their work as production duo Bloodshy & Avant. The duo has written and produced for Kylie Minogue, Madonna and Britney Spears… and claimed a Grammy for their work on Ms. Spears’ ‘Toxic’. In addition, Wyatt is fresh off co-production duties with Mark Ronson on Daniel Merriweather’s ‘Love And War’ album. Needless to say, these guys are VERY HOT property right now and they’ll join V V Brown in the XFM Stage together with fellow hotly tipped stars Marina & The Diamonds, Mpho and Trip, Norwegian princes Röyksopp, Germany’s brilliant Booka Shade and a DJ set from festival faves Pendulum; all hosted and compared by XFM’s John Kennedy and Eddy Temple Morris. Phew!!
